Building a Better Central Area

A public meeting for the reimagining of Wichita's urban areas is scheduled for 5:30 p.m. on Tuesday, June 26 at the new Advanced Learning Library, 711 W. 2nd Street.

Residents and media are encouraged to attend the meeting and share opinions on ideas presented by the consulting team on how best to make central area neighborhoods more walkable and accessible.

The gathering will engage the community, as part of "Wichita: Places for People," a plan for redevelopment within the "Established Central Area" of Wichita. The central area is bounded by 29th Street on the north; 31st Street on the south; Rock Road on the east; and, Ridge Road on the west.

The ideas presented will focus on ways to promote residential and commercial development and reinvestment in the mature areas of Wichita. Join friends and neighbors for a great discussion and contribute to the future development of central Wichita.
